The retired Major Ernest Pettigrew leads a quiet life in a small English village. He values the proper things that Englishmen have treasured for generations – honour, duty and a properly brewed cup of tea. His brother’s death sparks an unexpected friendship with the Pakistani shopkeeper from the village, Mrs Jasmina Ali. Drawn together by their shared love of literature and the loss of their respective spouses, the Major and Mrs Ali soon find their friendship blossoming into something more – a development that isn’t well received by the outraged village.
